Hello, Granted, this is a false positive and could be fixed through other channels if I absolutely had to have nmap installed, but...
This a corporate antivirus which I have no ability to personally override. Arguing with company IT about it is more trouble than just uninstalling an only occasionally used tool. I imagine arguing with the AV vendor would be even more of a headache. Even if I did all that it wouldn't be much help for others in similar situations at other companies with other AV products. The previous link I sent, to an archived discussion of this suggested a workaround which I think would be relatively simple to implement: distribute the affected files separately, as a recommended dependency. A user can then remove it (or not install it in the first place) if it becomes a problem and they don't need it. Thanks, Dom
